I have ordered several swatches now and placed two large fabric orders. I was reticent to buy swatches at $3 a pop (+ shipping) and was shocked/disappointed to have spent that much for each 8" x 8" swatch -- it is especially difficult to determine what the fabric actually looks like if there is any sort of pattern. I ended up placing two separate orders for fabric (one at the beginning of January and another at the end of January). For each order, they notified me about a week after I placed my order to let me know that they were unable to fulfill part of my order. For the fabric I have received, they cut it very diagonally (not straight across), so it made it difficult for my sewing project and I ended up having to cut quite a bit off of the end. I have wasted way too much time and money with this company. There are better and more reliable companies out there.
